I found a guy that has 3 drums of methanol,he says it has 12OZ OF "TOP LUBE" IN EACH BARREL . He said it is Sunoco racing methanol .Has anyone used this to make biodiesel before? He wants $3.00 a gal. Does anyone know where to get methanol at a good price in ky?

Top lube is an additve for methanol engines. Since its racing fuel they add it in, kinda like how we add in diesel fuel addtives. Its pretty much required for alochol burning engines. I dont think you can use it to make biodiesel. You need like 99.99% pure methanol, to make biodiesel.
